273. The Power of Letting Go: Why This Designer Stopped Managing Construction

Listen to this episode from Resilient by Design with Rebecca Hay on Spotify. This episode explores the journey of launching a new interior design business after stepping away from an existing and thriving design-build. Keely Gow, co-founder of the newly launched JK Studio in Muskoka, Ontario, shares her infectious passion as she talks about the decision behind her new business launch, why she chose to work with a partner, and what led her to shift her focus exclusively to offering full-service interior design. Keely opens up about some of the hard truths and realizations she had before making these major career moves, as well as the specific goals she set—goals that Power of Process helped her bring to life. She discusses the role of intuition in guiding her decisions, how she learned to listen to both her heart and her head, and how the community she found inside Designer’s Room and the Power of Process course provided the support she needed to take the leap. Plus, she shares insights into forming a business partnership, the challenges and advantages of working collaboratively, and her recent Style at Home magazine cover feature! If you're an interior designer looking to refine your process, streamline your business, or take the leap into a new phase of your career, this episode is packed with valuable insights and inspiration.   Episode resources:  Learn how to refine your design business processes: rebeccahay.com/powerofprocess Style at Home – Check out Keely Gow’s feature in the November 2024 issue!
